Yeah I prefer when the subtitles are like half a second late so it doesn't ruin the comedic or dramatic impact of every line.

Or, perfectly timed. I’ve seen captioners do this before: if a character pauses, what they say after the pause doesn’t appear until they say it.

This! A lot of human-generated subtitles are excellently timed. Auto-generated or live subtitles suck.

Wish I could adjust caption timing on more devices/apps.
